The climate change pit of despair
wnd.com ^ | 12/8/2018 | Patrice Lewis

Everywhere you turn, you are bombarded with concerns about climate change. Whether the weather is sunny, windy, hot, cold, dry, wet, blizzard-y, hurricane-y, or somewhere in between, “climate change” is the default reason for the season.

And climate change, we are told, is all our fault. Humans – especially the wasteful humans living in Western nations – are solely to blame for anything and everything weather-related. Never mind geologic history depicting changes through time. It’s always our fault.

In 2017, the World Economic Forum took its annual Global Shapers Survey of 31,000 18-to-35-year-olds from 186 countries on key issue, and concerns about climate change were hands-down the winning worry, with 90 percent of young people agreeing humans are responsible.

The younger generations are fed a constant and never-ending diet of propaganda about climate change, from kindergarten through graduate school. “It’s pretty terrifying to realize that we are ‘the first generation that knows we are destroying the world, and could be the last that can do anything about it,’ as the WWF puts it,” notes an article on Mashable. “However daunting it is, when it comes to thinking about climate change as a whole, being overwhelmed and shutting down makes zero sense, because individual acts can make a huge difference.”

Don’t forget our hot and spicy core!

Your graph is wrong. The ultimate authority on this topic, Al Gore, told us that the temperature of the Earth's core is "several million degrees," not your piddly 6,000 degrees.

Check out “State of Fear” by Crichton.

I read it when it came out in paperback. I think it was both highly descriptive and prophetic.

"“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

Tell that to John Roberts and the "affordable care act".

If our side had a loud enough spokesman (paging: Rush Limbaugh) we could sell the idea that passenger jets, steamships, trucks, cars and buses are nothing more than stealthy crop dusters. They hose down the landscape with plant food (CO2), keeping the Earth as green as it can be.

..Despite of all the efforts by climate change disciples to accomplish the opposite

"Tell that to John Roberts and the "affordable care act"."

Yes, along with the Supreme Court’s 19th century clarification that regulating insurance, the unconstitutional Obamacare mandate for example, is not within Congress’s Commerce Clause powers (1.8.3). This is regardless if buyer and seller are not domiciled in same state, and regardless that FDR’s state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices later overturned this clarification.

"4. The issuing of a policy of insurance is not a transaction of commerce within the meaning of the latter of the two clauses, even though the parties be domiciled in different States, but is a simple contract [emphases added] of indemnity against loss.” —Paul v. Virginia, 1869. (The corrupt feds have no Commerce Clause (1.8.3) power to regulate insurance.)

Note that although United States v. South-Eastern Underwriters (select case), which overturned Paul v. Virginia, references Gibbons v. Ogden, the following excerpt from Gibbons v. Ogden is not included in US v. South-Eastern Underwriters opinion, correction welcome.

"State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]." -Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

“Summer fall winter spring”
Hey, wasn’t “Princess SummerFallWinterSpring” a character in the old Howdy Doody TV Show? Along with Don Jose and Phineas T. Bluster, and Clarabelle the clown, of course?

It's not CO2. It's not you. It's the sun.

Answer - they have no intention of controlling the Sun...the whole scheme is to gin an iron-fisted control over their subjects so they no longer have to listen to us.
